Very nice, I thought flying was 11-3pm on Friday?

New ground frequency this year; https://www.facebook.com/RIATMovements1 ... 4879984063

The Brietling Jet Team are in America.

Breitling (the people who make watches) sponsor RIAT, hence their tent. They also happen to sponsor a display team with L-39s, but they're not necessarily at never Breitling sponsored event.

Also, looks like the Hawk T.2 role demo will be arriving on the Wednesday.

The PA-23 Aztec and Cessna 550 Citation of Marshall Aerospace are also due to be attending as day visitors, alongside a Cessna 680 of Cartier Europe (mentioned a few months back but never added to the Participation list.)

From Gloucester Tourist Centre:

The event is hugely popular and has been so much more so this year than in previous years, therefore Saturday and Sunday tickets are now sold out. However, we do have tickets for Friday 17th July still available costing £36.00. If you are interested in purchasing these tickets please do not hesitate to get in touch. We can issue tickets either over the phone (01452 396572) or in person at the Tourist Information Centre in Gloucester on Southgate Street. We can also arrange for tickets to be posted first class to your home address for a cost of £1.00.

Possible freq for the Hawk T2 role demo. 255.9750 was on holiday near RAF Valley last week and saw them practicing. Heard them on this freq which is the Valley Ninja stud. But worth putting in scanners just in case.

Two things I noticed.

The Vulcan and the Reds will fly together on both days

RAF A400 registrations begin with ZM and not ZZ as is written.

RIAT confirmed it on Twitter.

does anyone in the know roughly an eta of the P1s on Friday? am or pm

cheers
paul

Who said they were coming on Friday?

So, the P-1s are in both California and Djibouti, depending on what you read on this forum. Interesting!

Hi Robin again just to let you know that the Army Air Corps
tend to use either Tads or Fac frequencys at airshows.

In fact the Blue Eagles freqs at uhf were normally
also Tads or Fac freqs so it is not unusual at all .

Thank you Carl.

Hi Robin you state that you hope to update with New Interesting aircraft when RIAT release the information. Do you know something we don't? Is there another update to come ?

Riat updates are as and when now.

Yes I know this. His post indicates he knows something we do not. Something "interesting" and "new" perhaps misleading
